Looking good Tatsuo. I hoped it might not lean over so much with you.

Perhaps its stem was affected by very warm days (min. 10°C - max. 25°C) in last week.
I think the earlier flowering narcissus (i.e. romieuxii and cantabricus etc... ) tend to be influenced by our sunny winter more than the later flowering ones (i.e. cyclamineus and jonquilla etc...).

Here is Narcissus watieri x cyclamineus 2661 clone A. An amazing inter-section hybrid from Anne 8)

Narcissus 'Canaliculatus' - bought a bunch of these a couple of years ago to pot up for cheap and cheerful display and gifts. Pleased that they continue to perform, the tazettas don't always like out climate.
